I visited the family at the home place before preaching this morning. Just as sure as Bruce was absent from his body, I have assurance that he is present with our Lord.
About five years ago (after attending a Bible Study) Bruce shared his two favorite verses of Scripture with me:
1. 1 John 4:9 ... on True Love, and
2. Matthew 5:6 ... on Holy Hunger.
As I post this blog, I am standing at Duck Run Natural Cemetery watching the hearse pull onto the property carrying Bruce's body. He is resting in a casket he built for himself. His cancer journey allowed him a few years to get ready and Bruce didn't miss one detail.
Yes, Bruce passed this morning and his interment is this afternoon. He wanted a natural burial and he's getting it.
It could not be a more beautiful day.
Grateful
